100 Plug-ins Every Engineer Should Try Essential FX
SOS writers pick their favourite plug‑ins and tell us what makes them special.
On top of the plug‑ins that come with your DAW, there are thousands of third‑party offerings. With so many on the market, just compiling a shortlist to demo can feel daunting. How do you even know which ones to consider? Well, you could do worse than ask the experts. Our writers at SOS have been testing and using audio plug‑ins since they were invented, and in this article we’re drawing on their experience to help you narrow down the field. We invited our regular authors to nominate their favourite effects and processing plug‑ins, and explain what makes them so great. (We’ll cover virtual instrument plug‑ins another time.)
